Fileset Requirements on Managed Nodes
About OVO Language Support
About Language Support on Managed Nodes
Some operating systems must have a specific fileset installed for code-set
conversion. See the OVO DCE Agent Concepts and Configuration Guide
for software requirements on all managed node platforms.
Setting the Character Set on the Managed Nodes
The character sets available on platforms supported by OVO can differ
from the character set used in the OVO database. Consequently, when a
message is generated on a managed node, it must often be converted
before it can be sent to the management server and stored in the
database. OVO takes care of this conversion. If necessary, automatic
character-set conversions take place through OVO managed node
processes before a message is sent to the server.
Differences in the ISO 8859-1 and ISO 8859-15 Character Sets
The ISO 8859-15 character set replaces some of the characters of the
ISO 8859-1 character set so that character-set conversion between
ISO 8859-1 and ISO 8859-15 is not possible. Hence OVO treats the
character sets ISO 8859-1 and ISO 8859-15 as if they are identical.
Table 8-7 on page 299 describes any differences between the ISO 8859-1
and ISO 8859-15 character sets.
